A cooling assembly for a motor vehicle, the cooling assembly having a primary heat exchanger comprising a pair of primary collector boxes, the primary collector boxes with primary header plates, the primary header plates being of essentially rectangular shape; a plurality of primary tubes stacked between the primary header plates; a secondary heat exchanger comprising a pair of secondary collector boxes with secondary header plates being of essentially rectangular shape; a plurality of secondary tubes stacked between the secondary collector boxes. The primary heat exchanger and the secondary heat exchanger are arranged in parallel, perpendicularly to each other so that the secondary header plates of the secondary heat exchanger at least partially overlap the stack of the primary tubes of the primary heat exchanger.

A heat exchanger includes a fluid reservoir having a peripherally extending foot, a header having a mounting tab bent to engage the foot of the fluid reservoir to couple the header to the fluid reservoir, and a retaining feature configured to prevent disengagement of the mounting tab of the header from the foot of the fluid reservoir. The retaining feature overlays at least a portion of an outer surface of the mounting tab while otherwise restrained by a portion of the fluid reservoir in order to prevent the disengagement of the mounting tab from the foot.

A heat exchanger that performs heat exchange between a supply air flow and an exhaust air flow includes: a heat exchange element in a prism shape; a plurality of frame bars, each of the plurality of frame bars being attached to a corresponding side of the heat exchange element, the corresponding side extending along an axial direction of the heat exchange element; and an end face plate at least partially covering an axial end face of the heat exchange element, the plurality of frame bars being joined to the end face plate. The frame bars are joined to the end face plate in such a way as to be movable in the axial direction of the heat exchange element.

A frame (100) for a heat exchanger (1), wherein the frame (100) comprises a first arm (110) and a second arm (120) connectable together in a first connection (141) and in a second connection (142), so that the arms (110, 120) form a loop for encircling the heat exchanger (1), wherein at least one of the arms (110, 120) is adapted to restrict the movement of the heat exchanger (1) with respect to the frame (100) in at least one direction after assembly, characterized in that the first connection (141) is detachable and the second connection (142) enables movement of the first arm (110) with respect to the second arm (120) when the first connection (141) is detached.

A protective shroud includes a top plate, a first side plate that is adapted to be disposed proximate a first edge region of a plurality of cooling fins of a heat exchanger for an integrated circuit, and a second side plate that is adapted to be disposed proximate a second edge region of the plurality of cooling fins.

A gasket for a plate heat exchanger, wherein the gasket includes a body in the form of a loop for fitting to a plate of the plate heat exchanger. The body includes one or more peripheral connection areas spaced along at least one side of the loop, and a plurality of tabs for securing the gasket in position on the plate. Each tab is discrete from the body, and each tab includes a connection which is receivable by or engageable with one of the connection areas to connect the tabs and body together.

A connector suitable to be connected to a multi port extruded tube comprises a socket suitable for an end section of a multi port extruded tube to inserted into the socket along a linear insertion direction, whereby the socket contains an end section receiving space suitable to receive the end section of a multi port extruded tube, the end section receiving space bordering a first opening suitable for a multi port extruded tube to extend through it, whereby a cap arranged inside the socket such that the cap can slide from a forward position that is closer to the first opening to a backward position that is further away from the first opening, the cap having an outer circumferential surface whereby a sealing is provided inside the socket that contacts the outer circumferential surface of the cap in the forward position of the cap.

An HVAC system having an airflow path, a primary heat exchanger disposed along the airflow path, wherein the airflow path at least partially passes through the primary heat exchanger, and a multipurpose cabinet selectively configurable between at least a first configuration for housing a first type of auxiliary heat transfer component and a second configuration for housing a second type of auxiliary heat transfer component, wherein the airflow path at least partially passes through the multipurpose cabinet.

A cover for a heat source according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a first portion covering at least a portion of the heat source, and a second portion including a first latch and a second latch. Each of the first and second latches are configured to engage a fluid conduit. An assembly is also disclosed.

The fluid connector assembly includes a connector body with an intermediate portion that extends between opposite end portions and has a first bore. The connector body has an elongated wall that projects outwardly from the intermediate portion and that surrounds a second bore which opens to the first bore. A flat tube, which is made of a second material that is different than the first material and has at least one fluid passage, is in fluid communication with the second bore of the connector body. The flat tube has generally flat side walls and is lockingly retained with the connector body by male and female locking structures that cooperate with one another.
